[BC] KSWP/KAVX woes (Lufkin, Texas)

[Blake Bowers]

I am begining to get real dubious about claims from some
Christian stations.

Two weeks ago our local Christian LPTV station went down,
their STL tower - a Rohn 25 sized tower collapsed during a storm.

Two phone messages were left for the person in charge, as well
as emails.  No reply.

I had a temporary tower trailer 5 miles away they could have used,
as well as was willing to donate tower to
get them back on the air.

For some reason that was ignored, yet urgent pleas were made for
financial help to get them back on the air on other media
outlets, commercial TV and newspaper.

You have to wonder about the motivation.
